The French "Vintage-Inspired" Butter Dish Our Readers Bought More Than 3,000 Times

For years, I didn’t have a butter dish — or any butter storage, for that matter. I would just wrap the remaining stick of butter back up in its paper wrapping before stashing it in the fridge. And now? I’ve used so many that I’m The Kitchn’s unofficial butter dish correspondent. (Just waiting on those business cards.)

There are a ton of butter dishes out there for every style — classic, vintage-inspired, whimsical (like this storybook-inspired one). So how do you know which one to get? That’s where I come in. I found five butter dishes that are highly rated by shoppers and loved by you, our readers (you’ve all bought nearly 8,000 of these butter dishes!). And if you still need a bit more buttering up: They start at just under $16.
